Yuelao Shrine · Lot 2Good
姻缘簿上有君名莫急莫催莫出声待到桂香飘满径那人灯下正同行
What it means: The right one comes later. Be patient.
The verse is kept in Chinese. It is a four-line regulated poem — rhyme and metre are part of the thing itself, and they do not survive translation. The reading below is written in English.
The reading
The name is in the book; only the hour is missing. Rushing makes it messier. Do your own work quietly, and when the osmanthus opens you will meet. Do not miss someone because you were anxious.
Yuelao's lots are mostly reassurance: do not hurry, and do not settle.
How to read this grade
Good sits one step below Excellent: the direction is right, but the work has to be carried with diligence and patience. If the verse talks about keeping, gathering or holding steady, that is the point of the lot.
All eighty lots are lines written for Hanlu Temple. They are here to help you put a question into words — no promise, and no medical, financial or legal advice.
Draw this lot in the hall
Walk to the Yuelao Shrine, sit down on a cushion and put your palms together. The tube of lots stands by the altar. A lot you drew in the same hall on the same day is remembered, so you can come back and read it again.
